Inn, now shop premises. Late C18 with probably later C19 alterations. Red-brown brick in 1:4 and irregular English Bond, rendered on ground floor and decorated with hoodmoulds and key stones; roof not visible, possible coping left, end stacks forward of ridge.

Three storeys and attics over cellars, two bays with ground-floor passage right. Late C20 shop entrance and window left, three-light window right and round-arched passage entrance far right. Two casement windows with margin lights and flat brick arches to first floor, two smaller almost square casements to second floor, inserted window between. Stone blocks set into walls at second and third floor levels. Left return: tall staircase window of 8 x 4 panes; right return: entrance from passage has double doors of three fielded-panels in a moulded casing with fascia above with name 'Angel Buildings'.

INTERIOR: the side passage entrance opens into a narrow hall with shop premises to left and stairs at far end; a timber partition on the right has a doorway and window into rear premises not examined. Cellars: stone steps, two brick segmental vaulted rooms to rear, one with stone barrel ramp and steps from the rear yard, stone floors, a reused timber with mortice hole and slots used as a floor beam at the foot of the steps, front-room floor carried on joists. Stairs from ground to second floor: fine turned column on vase balusters and ramped handrail damaged by insertion of scaffolding on upper floor. Upper-floor ceiling beams cased in.

The oldest purpose-built inn building surviving in the yards off Briggate, it probably originally stood higher than the street frontage shops, with access from Briggate and Lands Lane.
